Café Kosmos

Debut album design for nublu

The idea behind the Café Kosmos album design began with portraying nublu in a futuristic café surrounded by imaginative, otherworldly characters. We first staged a photoshoot in a studio, capturing the core pose and atmosphere. Later, the image was digitally transformed into a full science-fiction scene: blending cosmic elements, futuristic architecture, and ambient lighting. The final design merges the realism of the original shoot with a carefully constructed sci-fi world, creating a surreal café universe that reflects the album’s mood.

While developing the Café Kosmos album design, nublu released a music video
for the single Universum with Mikael Gabriel, created in collaboration with
another production team. Although produced separately from my work, the single
became an important extension of the album’s universe and contributed to the
broader cosmic atmosphere surrounding the project.
